I’m thrilled to announce that the audiobook of Pirates of Sausalito: Houseboat Wars Murder Mystery is now available on AMPlify Audiobooks, narrated by Pro Audio Voices founder Becky Parker Geist, and yours truly, the author of the novel. She performs the women characters. I perform the men.

Pirates of Sausalito lends itself especially well to audio because I adapted it from a play I wrote and directed in 2023 — “Sausalypso Houseboat Wars Murder Mystery” — and is full of snappy dialogue. But of course I would say that.

Eventually it will be available through other vendors, but AMPlify Audiobooks gives the most royalties and it’s part of Becky’s company — she serves as president of the Bay Area Independent Publishers Association (BAIPA), which I am also a board member of — so please, buy it through AMPlify. If you don’t listen to audiobooks, now would be the perfect time to start. 🙂

Also, you must know someone who, like me, “reads” more books on audio than they do in paperback or ebook. Tell them.

This is my first foray into audiobooks and it was intense and fun to work with Becky and her super-professional team at Pro Audio Voices. I highly recommend them.

You can listen to a sample of Chapter 1 here.

Also, you might enjoy this interview of me by Becky, which we did during the production. We had a blast. I hope it’s as much fun to listen to as it was to record.

P.S. Now I now have a professional microphone setup, which Pro Audio Voices helped me put together, so maybe I’ll do this again.
